Rant post

Some fucking MBA shithead decides to save a couple bucks on parts by putting plastic internals in a part that sees torque and now my fucking shower valve face comes shooting off the wall like it’s a goddamn rocket and I come back from being away to steam condensation dripping off the ceilings and water rifling out of the wall like the goddamn Trevi fountain

So now I shut off the water, pulled out the old cartridge with the valve stem broken clear in two and replaced it with a CHINESE one that is properly made out of FUCKING BRASS like it should have been in the first place, all of which could have been avoided if this made in germany bullshit had been properly built to begin with

German engineering my fucking ass

    Looks inside engine bay oh look at that, it’s a mess of decaying plastic and rubber hoses and seals, not meant to last longer than 150k miles, and each year that passes the car sounds more and more like a vacuum cleaner from all them little leaks
